PRIME, no Amazon.
I think eventually, it will go. Maybe not know, but at some point, it will.

What would be cool is if they brought back both PeopleMover and Rocket Rods. Not sure where RR would go, but I loved that ride and would love to see it return with an appropriate ride system and track.

If Buzz is staying for the long term, Launch Bay seems to be staying a little longer with the new lounge, Subs just got a refurb, and the Autopia can't be altered much because of its placement, leaves only a little to work with if they're planning an announcement of any kind that is something other than just aesthetic upgrades

You’re likely correct. I’m also assuming it will be more aesthetic changes than anything, given the logistics of the land.
Your friend and mine Martin Smith just released a truly lovely video documenting Disneyland’s Monorail and Autopia. Interesting timing. Trying to tell us something, @marni1971 ?
Pure coincidence
Nice to see some OG DL love.Pure coincidence
Having recently returned from California, my family and I struggled to work out why anyone would visit Orlando instead.
We finally decided it would be for water parks and the Universal parks.
However we all agreed that while fun, GotG MB was an eyesore.

Y'know, an idea that I've heard suggested before is to turn Buzz into a dark ride based on "Hero's Duty" from Wreck-It Ralph.
What are our thoughts on that?

The one I heard was Buzz would be turned into a Suger Rush racer similar to Mario Kart with AR glasses. I guess they took their idea to Universal.

I think that was planned to replace Stitch's Great Escape at the Magic Kingdom back in 2016.

True, and then again, it seems like it almost has to be more than that based on the comments made by @GiveMeTheMusic, and how this will be somehow geared towards fans. We already got an aesthetic update teased a couple years back with that entrance concept art, so there has to be something else other than just more of that. Idk, maybe I’m wrong, but I want to believe there is at least more than just aesthetic changes made

As sad as this sounds, this theory may allow them to transition into those plans for the Tomorrowland entrance planters that seem to be forever left in tomorrow.

Yep. This is essentially what I’m thinking.

I'm easy to please, some cosmetics and a functioning people mover would leave me generally happy, even if there is literally nothing else.
Some other things that would play well would be new electric cars for autotopia, moving whatever the spinner is at the entrance, modernizing buzz. I won't get my hopes up that there is another net gain of an attraction. But if it's People Mover and some of the above that actually more or less gets Tomorrowland where I'd want it to be.

I would actually be happy of this “upgrade” is mostly aesthetics, seeing that current Disney Parks management can’t be trusted. I’d rather them try to make it look better than remove attractions for worse ones, for example, or add attractions that suck and continue to move away from the original theme.

Do we have an idea when this potential New Tomorrowland/Peoplemover might open? I just realized I hadn't really thought about it before, but the way Disney moves these days it could be 2025 before any of this even hits the park . . . which would be better than never, but still put a slight damper on things.

2025 for the 70th would be my Guess.

Without knowing any specifics/scale of the update, I’d say work starts in 2024 (around PatF opens), and everything opens 2027/8.
Tokyo’s Space Mountain follows a similar timeline.

Cynthia Harris said the ride damaged the infrastructure when she announced its closure. This means the track and supports need extensive repair.
Also if anyone doesn't know the Rocket Rods removed the speed tunnel when it was put in, in its place are lame fiber optic effects.
What misplaced IP is going to be assigned to the people mover? Iron Man?
